I Steal the Ancestors' Sacrifices to Nourish Myself Chapter 68 - 39: Kui Thunder Evergreen Skill, the Two Ambiti
Beside Zhushui River.
Two figures gazed at the roaring Zhushui River, while in the distance, silhouettes stood solemnly in two directions.
"Old Bird, do you think this is true or not?"
The Ape Mountain Clan Leader, Ape Peak, spoke.
"It’s rely a matter of a batch of slaves." Cyan Bird Clan Leader Cang Hex replied.
"Indeed, if it’s truly the Young Master of the Lingyu Bo Division, even if it’s a branch, it’s beyond our reach. Now that he’s co to our mountainous land, we must make contact."
Ape Peak muttered as if speaking to himself, or perhaps for Cang Hex to hear.
The news brought back by the Elders from both divisions prompted their clans to hold a eting overnight.
The news was truly shocking.
The branch Young Master of the Lingyu Bo Division, a spectacular figure their ancestors hadn’t seen for generations.
After discussion, they decided to try regardless of whether it was true or not, just in case they need to be of use.
"Old Bird, you’re good at thinking, analyze this for , why doesn’t the Bo Division Young Master bring more people, and instead use these small tribes of ours?"
Cang Hex didn’t bother to respond to Ape Peak’s question, turning to head east.
"My division’s first batch of slaves, two thousand, will be ready in three days. Send them over to have a look first."
"Three days? You’re bringing out all your miner slaves."
Ape Peak was astonished, two thousand people is no small number. Although they controlled the Ruins Market, deploying such numbers would take far more than three days.
"Alright, let’s go north together then, for mutual support."
The unanswered issue didn’t trouble Ape Peak, who quickly departed with his clan mbers.
The question of why the branch Young Master of the Bo Division would use their remote small tribal people was discussed during the clan eting.
Based on the returned news, it was precisely due to his identity as a branch Young Master that he dared not bring more people from the Bo Division.
They couldn’t verify which major veins the Lingyu Bo Division had, but the division between main and branch was certain.
Though they were small divisions, they understood the gap between main and branch.
This branch’s Young Master Fu likely feared the main vein coming to seize his Flood Dragon.
...
While the two divisions were busy gathering slaves, Shen Can wasn’t idle.
[Spending three hundred years of lifespan, you finally located the starting point of the Cultivation Technique Map’s First Celestial Vein, channeling blood and energy to open up the First Celestial Vein within.]
[The beginning of cultivation is difficult. After opening the First Celestial Vein, the blood energy traverses within it, gradually sensing the starting point of the Second Celestial Vein.]
[After another ten years, you successively found the positions of the Third and Fourth Celestial Veins, channeling blood energy to open them up.]
[You, who have penetrated four Celestial Veins, have blood energy surging throughout your body, emitting thunder sounds within.]
[You plan to proceed further, find the position of the Fifth Celestial Vein at once suddenly you feel a surge in your throat, involuntarily let out an ’moo’ sound.]
[Moo moo moo, you continued mooing for a year before realizing you are a Kui Ox, not a regular ox, because the Cultivation Technique Map wasn’t a pure Kui Ox.]
[After another half year, you suddenly understand, you are not even a Kui Ox.]
[You finally beco lucid, suddenly noticing scales covering your body, with thick fur growing on it.]
[You were startled awake.]
...
Hoo!
Inside the cave, Shen Can awoke, the horror in his eyes lingering for a long ti before subsiding.
Mutation?
Deduction is more like a prediction, reflecting events that might happen in the future.
This scene, it’s no wonder he’s astonished.
Becoming what you learn might be a normal phenonon.
But if beastification occurs, that’s a big problem.
He thought of Jifu, this mutated rmaid, clearly this isn’t an isolated case.
Leaving the Ancestral Temple and wandering the mountains cald Shen Can’s mood.
In such situations, there’s no other option but to face challenges and adapt, investing more lifespan for deduction, trial, and error.
The Martial Arts Map acquired from Upper Huang felt sowhat akin to the division’s cultivation in Kui Ox Fist.
Shen Can nad this newly deduced cultivation technique "Kui Thunder Evergreen Skill."
The na was chosen because after penetrating Celestial Veins, there’s martial thunder sound during blood circulation.
Moreover, he earnestly hoped for this too, cultivating martial arts is life evolution, lifespan naturally ought to be significantly extended.
At any particular realm, lifespan should match the realm’s level.
At the very least, it can’t be like now, where the lifespan of Celestial Veins and ordinary tribesn isn’t much different.
This doesn’t resemble the appearance life evolution should have.
...
Half a month later.
Shen Can was still organizing specific cultivation details of Kui Thunder Evergreen Skill when Huo Shan entered the Ancestral Temple.
"Acan, the two divisions have brought the slaves, at least three to four thousand people."
Shen Can heard the two divisions were quite proactive.
Three to four thousand people, if the Blazing Fla Tribe were to capture them alone, who knows if it would take half a year or a year, expending much manpower.
Now they don’t need to capture anyone, people are delivered directly to the door.
"How many days away are they?"
"Two or three days, as the path is slow due to the large group."
"That’s sufficient, the first visit can’t show weakness, what reward is due must be given."
Shen Can nodded, already having planned what to reward the two divisions.
This item, the two divisions will surely treasure greatly, showcasing the high class of the Bo Division.
...
Inside the cave with trickling water vapor.
"The humble Clan Leader Ape Peak of Ape Mountain has co to see Young Master Fu."
"Cang Hex of Cyan Bird Division has co to see Young Master Fu, we’ve already escorted the first batch of slaves over."
When Ape Peak and Cang Hex entered the cave, Huo Chang was already inside, drawing a few more glances from the two.
Jifu transford into Lingyu form, asleep in the pool, giving the two clan leaders a clear view of Lingyu’s appearance.
At this mont, Ape Peak suddenly spoke, "Young Master Fu, it’s a great honor for humble divisions in the mountains to et Upper Division’s great one.
My division’s land is barren with little production, but coincidentally has so crude wine to offer Young Master, hoping it doesn’t tarnish Young Master’s palate."
Upon hearing this, Cang Hex looked at Ape Peak in astonishnt.
Knowing Ape Peak for decades, he swore by his brain that those words weren’t from Ape Peak’s uncultured character.
During their etup beside Zhushui River, he suggested sending a batch of slaves first, assuming Ape Peak would follow their agreent to send only slaves.
Yet now Ape Peak delivered slaves and cozied up.
A stab in the back, blatant backstab.
Ape Peak proudly glanced at Cang Hex, then yelled towards the cave entrance, "Bring it in quickly!"
Ape-Frog ca in carrying a jar over a foot tall, engraved with golden lines.
Even the wine jars weren’t made of crude pottery.
Cang Hex looked at the wine jar bitterly, damn you...
"Young Master Fu, our humble division’s Tier Two peach wine, slightly sweet, offered for Young Master’s daily sips."
"How can there be wine without dishes?"
Cang Hex also spoke, "Our humble division lacks wine, but previously luckily acquired a thod of taming birds. We raised several Cyan Feathered Sparrows, specially brought sparrow eggs and smoked sparrow at this ti."
This left Ape Peak glaring at Cang Hex.
Beside Zhushui River, didn’t you agree to send a batch of slaves first?
Ape Peak knew his wine wasn’t considered quality in Lingyu tribes, but here, in remote mountainous terrain.
The significance isn’t in how high the rank of the items is, Ape Mountain Division gave its utmost, offering the finest.
If it were just him offering wine, wouldn’t it be a grand showing?
What a great opportunity, Cang Hex, this scheming fox, truly as cunning as ever.
Fortunate to have listened to his wife.
If it wasn’t for early arrangents, today would have been Cyan Bird Division’s solo triumph.
Shen Can looked at the peach wine and bird eggs, having heard from Huo Chang after returning from the Ruins Market, the three divisions’ distinctive treasures rarely exposed.
Now it’s great, they delivered them eagerly.
The clan leaders coming personally wasn’t unexpected to him.
This matter concerning the future developnt of the entire tribe would naturally be valued.
This also marked a verification of his identity by the two divisions.
...
"Regarding the arrangent of slaves, let the Blazing Fla Division organize it. Their division resides by water, making it convenient to quickly place people along the wetland shores."
Shen Can indicated for Huo Shan to collect the items, spoke, "Hurry and proceed."
Upon hearing, Huo Chang bowed slightly, "Yes, I will certainly be diligent and thorough."
